Bug Description

I can discover, pair, and connect my HTC Thunderbolt Android 2.x device with no problem using Ubuntu 12.04. I can even send files to it. However, I cannot browse the Android file system in order to get files from it. Apparently I am not the first person to discover this bug as can be seen from this:

Recently tested, on 12.10 this problem lives on.
If I may add a similar problem to this bug, you're also not able to send any data to any devices.
Besides, I tried to connect and pair with another notebook with (x)ubuntu running on it.
Like the description for this bug, you can't browse the other system or send anything to it.

Various tries on my behalf leads to the assumption, that the "obex-data-server" ist at fault, because this particular piece always crashes, if trying to send anything.

A real pity. Such basic functionality should be provided working out-of-the-box. Actually, this is even a regression, since older Ubuntu versions (back in about 2009/2010) had a working browsing functionality for Bluetooth phones. This is literally a bug that hasn't been fixed for ages.

Bug set to confirmed in April 2012. Nothing done ever since. Would help, but I'm not a programmer. Please fix!
